PFAS Awareness Campaign
Raising awareness about "forever chemicals" contaminating military bases and surrounding communities.
The Mission
PFAS chemicals used in firefighting foam have contaminated groundwater at hundreds of military installations worldwide.
Our Impact
These chemicals never break down and accumulate in the body, causing cancers, immune dysfunction, and developmental issues.
Community Role
We map affected bases and connect impacted veterans with testing resources and advocacy groups.
Take Action
Our initiative pushed for PFAS blood testing to be included in VA health screenings for at-risk veterans.
